http://itknowledgeexchange.techtarget.com/itanswers/protecting-an-ubuntu-804-implementation/#commentsThu, 22 Jan 2009 20:20:12 +0000I just started with Ubuntu Alternet 8.04.1 LTS with 1386 ISO. As a new user I want to protect my system before I get on the internet. I felt unprotected using Windows, and got adaware and viruses.

I downloaded and burned these .deb files for protection along with Avast! for Linux :

bastille – Security hardening tool (Should I be using SELinux instead?) harden – Makes your system hardened harden-environment – Hardened system environment harden-nids – Harden a system by using a network intrusion detection system harden-remoteaudit – Audit your remote systems from this host harden-servers – Avoid servers that are known to be insecure harden-surveillance – Check services and/or servers automatically harden-tools – Tools to enhance or analyze the security of the local system hardening-wrapper – experimental compiler wrapper to enable security hardening flags harden-clients_0.1.32_all.deb (Not sure if I need it…) Firestarter — for firewall.

After doing all of this, I was unable to install them! I thought I could use to install Windows program and tried to intall by clicking on them from the DVD and it would not Install.
